Plastic pollution control systems work Recycled plastics industry can play an important role

Support the construction of plastic waste recycling projects, publish a list of companies that standardize comprehensive utilization of waste plastics, guide relevant projects to gather in parks such as resource recycling bases and industrial resource comprehensive utilization bases, and promote the scale, standardization and cleanliness of the plastic waste recycling industry development
.
(The National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment shall be responsible according to the division of responsibilities.
) Strengthen the environmental supervision of plastic waste recycling enterprises, and increase the rectification of small and scattered enterprises and violations of laws and regulations to prevent secondary pollution
.
(The Ministry of Ecology and Environment is responsible) Improve the relevant standards for recycled plastics, accelerate the promotion and application of advanced and applicable technical equipment for the recycling of waste plastics, and encourage the utilization of plastic wastes at the same level and with high added value
.
(The State Administration for Market Regulation and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology are responsible according to the division of responsibilities)

7.
Improve the level of harmless disposal of plastic waste
.

Promote the construction of domestic waste incineration facilities in an all-round way, and support all localities to make up for the shortcomings of domestic waste incineration treatment capacity as soon as possible.
In principle, cities at the prefecture level and above and county towns with incineration treatment capacity or construction conditions will no longer plan and build original waste landfill facilities; Support areas with sparse population, low waste generation, and no large-scale waste incineration facilities to build incineration treatment facilities through cross-regional co-construction and sharing, or conduct pilot projects of decentralized and miniaturized incineration treatment facilities after technical evaluation and demonstration; Significantly reduce the amount of plastic waste going to landfill
.
Strengthen the comprehensive renovation of existing landfills, improve the level of operation and management, standardize daily operations, prohibit random dumping and stacking of domestic waste, and prevent the leakage of historical landfill plastic waste into the environment
.
(The National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment shall be responsible according to the division of responsibilities)

Industry-related analysis:

Domestic plastic products are increasing year by year.
According to statistics, the total output of plastic products in China in 2020 will be 76.
032 million tons.
Large-scale products will inevitably bring a lot of waste, but not all waste will cause pollution.
In addition to burial, incineration and other treatment methods, most plastic materials can be recycled and reused.
At present, physical recycling is mainly used in China
.
Recycling can not only help solve plastic pollution, but also save resources, reduce the mining of fossil raw materials, and reduce carbon emissions, with many benefits
.

From a long-term perspective, the policy is beneficial to the recycled plastics industry.
In the short and medium cycle, it still faces problems such as adjustment of norms and intensified competition, and the competition situation will not change frequently
.
The industry is a perfectly competitive market, and prices are determined by the relationship between supply and demand.
The upstream sellers and downstream buyers are relatively strong, and the bargaining power of recycling plants is low.
The biggest competitive threat comes from competing manufacturers and substitutes in the industry
.
However, recycled plastic has the advantages of low price and environmental protection properties, and the price of new materials is relatively high, so there is no product that can completely replace recycled plastic
.

As a policy-oriented industry, the dual-carbon background, the 14th Five-Year Circular Economy Strategy, the Plastic Pollution Control Action, and the "Plan" will affect the industry's production, recycling, circulation, and consumption, and ultimately affect the industry's supply and demand, which will further affect prices.

.
Specifically, with the substantial increase in the proportion of plastic waste recycling and energy utilization, the supply of recycled plastics will gradually increase from the source
.
From the perspective of usage scenarios, under the background of dual carbon, the usage scenarios of recycled plastics will change from cost reduction to carbon reduction in the future, and more large terminal manufacturers will increase the use of recycled plastics in the future
.
After the supply and demand sides both increase, it is expected that the competition situation in the industry will not change much in the short period of time, and the situation of coexistence of large-scale enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises will continue.
Large-scale enterprises have no monopoly position, and the mainstream market price is still dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises with larger comprehensive volume.
However, the scale of enterprises may have obvious development compared with the previous years
.
At present, practitioners in the industry are more risk-averse, and the trader tends to be stable
.
It is expected that there will be few expansion plans for small and medium-sized processing plants in 2022.
End customers will purchase on demand and maintaining constant inventories will be the mainstream trend.
Large enterprises may tend to be cautious in their expansion plans
.
In addition, the impact of the macro environment on the industry cannot be ignored.
Under the background of imported inflation, it is expected that the industry price may further rise in the future
.

In addition, chemical recycling is worthy of attention.
The rise and development of this production process in the future will definitely have an impact on the recycled plastic industry and the quality of recycled particles
.
As we all know, domestic recycled plastics are mainly physical recycling and reuse.
With the increasing use of recycled materials and the emphasis on the use of low-value waste at home and abroad, chemical recycling is a very hot topic
.
At present, some chemical giants in foreign countries have begun to deploy the industry, and it is still in the discussion stage in China
.

Plastic pollution control is a long-term systematic project, vigorously develop the recycled plastic industry, and play the role of recycled materials
